Day to Night

HEY EVERYONE!  Sorry it's been sooooo dang long!  It's about time to put these pictures up.  I had them in my computer for almost a month now...this was actually the day I got engaged.  <3

(For those who don't know, I'm now engaged to my best friend and the best man ever.  YAY!)
(Here we are on that day...I totally had no idea!  ahhh!)

Anyways, back to the important stuff here  ;)
I have really (more than normal) been into accessories.  I got this gold charm necklace.


I got it at Wet Seal.  I am not always a big fan of their jewelry but after trying it on and wearing it for a whole day, I was glad that I decided to get it.

I paired it with a long, feathery charmed necklace to add versatility. 
I liked how the shirt was sheer.  I think it helped give the outfit the edgey look I was giong for. 
And I have been loving colored pants!  I decided to wear these ones to coordinate with the back of my shirt (which you can't see) But it's a blue-ish/grey floral print.
I am usually in a more girly shoe like a heel or wedge, but I like to change it up every now and then for a different look. 
I let the black socks peek to create some balance from head to toe with color. 
I liked the kinda funky feel of the outfit so I did my hair in a sideways bun that is a simple pony tail to the side and wrapped around its self with a hair tie. I made sure to leave volume up in the front and teased the bun to give it a messy look.  Then hairspray tiiiime!!! 


After a day of events, we went to a nice dinner so to change the look of the outfit, I slipped on these wedges.
I got these at Marshall's last year for only $20!  And I LOVE them.  I'm telling you, Marshall's is the iish! 
I wasn't planning on doing a "Day to Night" blog, so I'm sorry I didn't get any good pictures of my "night" outfit.  :(
But it really does take something just as simple as a pair of shoes to change your whole outfit. 

It was very chilly that night so I put on this super colorful jacket, that I also got at Marshall's. 
(this is right before he proposed!)

It's a "Hurley" jacket that I got for about $35.  It has a string in the back about waist high so it's pretty versatile to size. By being tied in the back, it helps create a waistline.  So even in a big, warm jacket, you can still show off your curves.  Or if your body lacks a little curve, it can create curves for you.



So the only thing I really changed for my "night look" were my shoes.  Although it wasn't a super fancy change, you can see how a pair of shoes can change your whole outfit. 

So ladies, if you have a party or event to attend to right after work, don't go all the way home to change.  Just wear something universal for your day job, bring a heel of any sort and maybe a couple pieces of jewelry to leave in your car.  Just those couple of things will help dress up your outfit.  :)

If you would like me to do another blog like this, let me know.  I would love to!  Especially since I didn't expect to make this blog with these particular pictures.  Or if you have a special request that you would like to see, suggestions are welcomed.   Let me know what ya think. 

As always, thanks for stopping by!
